[Tallman]

My goodness. TWE seems to be getting more harder and I think general release is impossible for me anymore. Thank you members for sharing the available links. Grab 1 from Okini.

[F360]

hmm, that is strange . ... was this sold out earlier?.. looks like it's back in stock if so.

 

 

[F360]

I hope Okiniland is good, never order it from them and this is my first Tamashi Exclusive and paying upfront, let´s see how it goes.

[borgified]

And yes folks, I do have a cat... 

[Anasazi37]

It's back up for sale on P-Bandai. Go go go.

I went with Anime Export (because I've finally jumped off the NY bandwagon even though they have sent me a note saying that they were bad and now they would be good and the only thing they stuffed up for me was the Roy parts) - so have all the nervousness of not using someone like HLJ or AmiAmi whom I trust. I also have an Okiniland for the 1D for the same reason. Hopefully with this rights thing righted or whatever state it's in, production runs are going to be expanded and this might become a little less fraught. 

I understand the idea of the experiment about posting separately, but also agree that I the results are in, people are posting here, and that this place has had years of doing it a specific way and it's messy but it works for people because they are still doing it that way. Unless mods want to get to the point of nuking posts in this thread and constantly reminding people they should post in the other thread, the experiment has been run (these things almost always either work straight off or not and it's up to people to decide if they want to keep paddling a sinking ship in the hopes of changing something). (speaking of experiments, a "green / yellow / red" scorecard for vendors might work if posted at the top of this forum as there is probably a consensus on which vendors are reliable and which are not and those which the jury is out on)

Picked up a pre-order at AE for the armour. It is so nice to be able to relax a little bit for once and not stress out on a pre-order night. Lucky for me I don't need another VF-1J and I could just order the armour. Having said that though, good luck to everyone seeking the bundle. I hope you all manage to secure a pre-order. 

Reposting my comment from yesterday as it was scrubbed from the "other" thread.

Well crud. I look at the pictures more about how maneuverable it looks and now I have non-buyers remorse. My Yamato 148 GBP is such a brick. Oh well maybe they'll reissue this in 6 months or something. They seem to do it with the other super and strike packs.

You could also go for the armor bundle set, pre-ordering next week.

Aside from the already have a VF-1J DX mentions, that is.

Just ordered the 1J with the GBP armor from Luna Park Toys.  ¥38,500 + ¥5,000 shipping.  Payment up front  (but at least my CDN dollar is doing well right now).

Don't know if it'll be cheaper at other places, but I'm sooo tired of the F5 button 

They just upped the price to 39.8k yen as of right now

There was a coupon for ¥2000.  I wonder if a lot of people started using that so they upped the price because of it.

[Special Sauce]

Does anyone know if Okiniland put up the full set of the GBP armor with the VF-1J or just the armor?

Just ordered the armor after all. Budgets not tight tight, but I like to be practical. For the few times I transform it, I can take off the armor. $140 hurts a lot less than $340

They'll probably reissue it in another color scheme like Max or Roy. 

[rocketblast]

meh, I just want it for the VF-1J mainly.. armors are good tho   I need to contact BIJ and see if I can cancel my armor order because then I will just use the money to buy 2 complete sets with VF-1Js.  My card hasn't been debited yet.

[Sandman]

I totally missed out on this preorder. Was the combo pack released or just the amour? And if the combo was, is it still available? Can't find any listings.

Ordering from luna park was too easy. That makes me anxious. Lol

Did you contact the store if they’ll ship your order by DHL?

No. I might just wait and deal with it when it's time to ship it.

Thanks for the heads up. Got mine this way. 

[matic]

Ordering from NY outside of Asia is a gamble and be prepare for additional shipping cost.

Luna Park is excellent but there package could be better.

[tjdetweiler]

I just PO'ed the Armor set as I already have the DX VF-1J. Good luck to everyone getting the DX VF-1J w/ Armor set 

[rocketblast]

Hmm I'm still holding off on purchasing the VF-1J with the armor til more places start selling it.  Hopefully I can get a semi-decent price.  I don't expect to get MSRP so that's okay.  I already ordered 2 sets of armors but I might have to see if I can talk BIJ into refunding those so I can just fund the full set.  though, someone pointed out that I could just take my max VF-1A and swap heads and assemble the armor.  well idk.

[weiser21]

This preorder sold out quick, my friend in Japan tried to get me one but it's sold out on p-bandai. Maybe Bandai will have a second run or add more units.

Is it payment upfront?

TWE orders are "Pay Up Front" with no free loans given out.
